    Hooray! I'm glad you're putting together your computer, Anightgirl. Once you get the general understanding of how the computer is supposed to be put together, it becomes pretty easy the next time.

    Every part comes with instructions on how to install them (even the mobo, which will literally have a map of what is what). So as long as you do what they tell ya, you should be set. ^_^
  4. lol, I've had that happen before. The bad part was that I was in a mission and it wouldn't let me leave before completing it. I was finally able to use the Pocket D TP or Ouro Portal to get out of there. I can't remember which it was.

    It is indeed a happy Monday.... for I just got my Cable installed and 'had' to take the day off from work because of it. ^_^
  6. Bonehead is one of my personal favorites for 'faceless' toons. It does have empty eyes and nose, but everything else is pretty neutral.

    Keira Knightly would be hot if she'd just eat a little more.

    Happy Monday....

    A slice of cake, a cupcake, and a glass of diet sunkist.

    Still pretty hungry.... but I really don't want to go out in 5 degree weather.

    Yes, that means we had the cake at work. I love my job. ^_^

    Just called the Cable company yesterday, they won't be able to get my internet and TV installed until Monday.

    Can't say I've had the pleasure. There's not one close enough to me, but next time I'm near Lafayette (Indiana) I'm sssssoooooo trying it out.

    No, it's not a good morning. Not until the Cable Company gets off their bums and installs my cable!

    All sorts of craziness.

    You only need dual core... no you need quad core... this brand sucks... no wait it rocks...

    Don't build prebought they use cheap stuff.

    No buy prebuilt prices are dropping due to crappy economy and they are cheap as hell.

    Don't use Vista, vista is fine.

    Use this brand vid card NO this one, get 1 G vid card mem... shut up fool 1 G is ridiculous and over priced... she only needs 500K MB vid card memory is fine.

    AMD processors are fine. NO they BLOW and it is worthwhile to pay for Intel.

    Syn's head usually explodes about here.

    I've built 2 of my PCs from the ground up and let me tell you what I know from my experiences.

    -Generally it's considered better to build your PC. You have better control over what is in it, you don't have to put up with so much superfluous bundled software and you get a better price at the end of it all.

    -The PCs that I have put together have lasted longer than any of my pre-built ones. Granted, those were PCs built in the 90's and mine were made from new parts in the 00's, but it's still comparable in my eyes.

    -The experience is something to cherish. I got a sense of accomplishment and great satisfaction in seeing my first PC start up for the first time.

    -The knowledge you gain from the assembly can help you in trouble shooting in case something goes wrong... Instead of having to send the whole thing out to the company and waiting a very long time to get it back, you can fix it yourself and get it working in a much shorter time.

    If you are considering assembling your first PC, I suggest buying online from Newegg.com. It's the only place i trust for my computer parts.

    That's Newegg.com.

  17. Hello. I don't believe I've posted on this forum, so I thought I would contribute with a few interesting shots I've taken.

    Is this Sparta? I think it might be.

    Don't worry, it's dead. Not sure how it can keep itself from falling, though.

    Booooooooo, you used shivvans you cheated. lol, just kidding. That's fricken awesome, I must say. If anyone says EA sucks, show them that video.

    One of these days I want to get my Grounded Wire to a place where I can 2-person an ITF. That would be just swell. =)
  21. Is there a story to this character? Telling a bit of that might help people get a better image in their head.
  22. How odd.... I noticed the other day that CoH has let 'depth of field' be a toggle-able option again. It's normally just greyed out for me along with 'bloom effects' (which is also toggle-able now) and a few others. Not sure if it was because I was messing with settings or what... but I turned it on and will run with it for a while to see how it goes.
  23. I would like to have access to a PVE zone that gives off the vibe that you're a lone villain in a primarily hero based area. Like.... with Heroes.... they have dark areas like Croatoa... Or Faultline. Villains should have a some lighter themed zones to help broaden the experience of playing. Like a clean looking city zone that's patrolled by some random good guy group. Not longbow, though. We got enough longbow in villains....

    We just need something that's in contrast to the typical run-down and dirty looking zones we stare at for 50 levels.
